Great tour. Available for independent visits. We arrived by taxi (it cost 700 rubles from the Petronas towers). It's better to arrive in the morning. Fewer people and not as hot. First you can go to the caves with neon lights, then to the cave by a bright staircase, it's not a difficult climb! Vivid photos and videos are obtained. It's difficult to take single photos on the stairs, someone is constantly coming down and up! You can take a nut or bananas to feed the monkeys, they also sell bananas locally for 1 ringit (~ 20 rubles) for a small banana. There is a two-storey building nearby - on the second floor there is a 1 ringit toilet at one end, on the other end there is a good cafe where you can cool off, have a snack, drink coffee, there is no beer.

To be fair, it should be noted that this is a whole cave complex. The most visited Light Cave is reached by these 272 rainbow steps. Previously, bat guano was mined here, but then, after a visit by the chairman of the Hindu community, who was reminded of the spearhead of Murugan, the god of war and patron saint of thieves, a temple was built here in honor of this god at the end of the 19th century. Malaysia's tallest gilded 43-meter statue of Murugan has been installed in our time. Admission is free. The longest is the Dark Cave, the entrance to which is located in the middle of the rainbow staircase has been closed to the public for several years, at least according to the information of the guard who has been working here for 7 years, the cave has been closed all the time in his memory. There are two more caves open to the public, one has an art gallery, which they did not visit, but limited themselves to an external inspection. The second is dedicated to the epic Ramayana, with a statue of the monkey king Hanuman at the entrance. A purely commercial project, the visit is paid. The latter is illuminated, with underground waterfalls and, of course, with numerous statues of epic plots. The most practical way to get there by taxi is quickly and without wasting time, we have 32 ringgit left from the city center to the entrance, the tip on top is a separate fee.

The caves are just great. I definitely recommend it for viewing. It's very interesting and beautiful. We climb the stairs and find ourselves in a Cave. There is a temple inside the cave. The only thing to be afraid of is wild monkeys. They can snatch various valuable items, including phones. Be careful.
